Chapter 189 When She Is Willing
Chapter 189 When She Is Willing
Had a lot of fun.
Later, Lin Mingmo became friends with the group of children and laughed heartily.
It had been a long time since she had expressed her emotions this openly.
Sheng Yuan watched silently with a smile in his eyes, and gradually withdrew from the group of people having fun.
After all, I am thirty years old, and it is a bit tiring to play with these kids who are only a few years old or in their teens.
Sheng Yuan suppressed his emotions and returned to his usual calm and reserved demeanor. He retreated to the edge of the ski resort and sat next to Mo Zheng.
There was a small barbecue grill at my feet. The charcoal fire inside was burning red, emitting a scorching heat that dispelled the coldness of the snow.
There was a pot on the iron mesh, boiling red wine, the strong aroma of wine mixed with the fragrance of fruit.
The bottle of Pinot Noir was still stuck in the snow.
Sheng Yuan frowned slightly, "Isn't it too extravagant to cook it like this?"
Mo Zheng smiled innocently, "I took it from my dad's wine cellar, I don't feel bad about it."
"Besides, girls definitely prefer this kind of sweet and warm wine."
After hearing what he said, Sheng Yuan had no objection.
Mo Zheng grabbed another handful of chestnuts and put them on the grill. Aunt Wang prepared some sweet potatoes, potatoes, chestnuts and fruits, saying that it was popular to roast them outside now.
Mo Zheng found it novel.
On the side, Sheng Yuan put his hand into his bag and touched a small hard box.
"When are you going to propose?" Mo Zheng asked casually while fiddling with the chestnuts on the grill.
Sheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at him, his eyes asking, "How did you know?"
Mo Zheng sighed, "Sheng Yuan, I'm just not as smart as you, but I'm not really stupid. Aren't you the mysterious person who bought the pink heart ring for 120 million?"
"Li Yunhua is a jewelry designer. This incident caused a huge sensation in her circle. You... you've raised the bar. What am I going to do in the future?"
Although Mo Zheng spoke in a complaining tone, he was very proud in his heart.
His sister deserves such a big diamond ring.
Mo Zheng bumped Sheng Yuan's shoulder teasingly.
Sheng Yuan smiled faintly, and his fingers in his pocket gently stroked the ring box.
It was indeed him.
"So when are you going to propose?" Mo Zheng asked again. "It's better to do it today than today. The atmosphere is so good today. My dad agrees with you two, and Xiaomo is so happy too..."
Now is the best time.
More importantly, if Sheng Yuan really proposed to Lin Mingmo, Mo Bozhao would definitely have to consider Lin Mingmo's affairs and pay less attention to himself.
Mo Zheng wanted to say that it was a good time to propose, but when he turned around, he saw Sheng Yuan with a serious expression on his face.
The red light of the charcoal fire reflected on his face, and flames seemed to dance in his eyes.
"What's going on?" Mo Zheng asked hesitantly.
Sheng Yuan shook his head and looked at Lin Mingmo, who was playing the role of "the hen protecting her chicks" in the distance. A faint smile appeared on his face and he said calmly, "Don't worry, I'll propose to her when she agrees."
Sheng Yuan knew that, at least for now, Lin Mingmo had no intention of getting married.
She hasn't had enough of this kind of life.
Mo Zheng was amused by his words, "You didn't even propose, so how do you know if she's willing?"
Sheng Yuan glanced at him and said, "If you want something like this, even if your mouth doesn't say it, your eyes will tell it."
Mo Zheng felt like he was being taught a lesson by Sheng Yuan, and his face was filled with black lines.
"Whatever you want." He snorted and continued to fiddle with his cooking red wine.
Over there, Lin Mingmo was really tired from playing.
After all, she is not a real child and her energy is not as strong as those real children.
She was panting heavily and walked towards Sheng Yuan and Mo Zheng.
Sheng Yuan took out a handkerchief and as soon as Lin Mingmo came closer, he pulled her to his side and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Lin Mingmo also enjoyed it and closed her eyes and let him do it.
She was originally wiping the sweat with a tissue, but as she was wiping, the tissue disappeared, and instead, Sheng Yuan's palm and fingertips gently wiped her cheek.
The two temperatures blended together, feeling itchy and tingling. Lin Mingmo couldn't help but shrink her neck and laugh.
Seeing this, Mo Zheng got goosebumps.
"Tsk tsk tsk... Sheng Yuan, you... tsk tsk!" Mo Zheng shook his head, his expression and tone full of disgust. "Thanks to Xiao Mo, otherwise I wouldn't have had the chance to see such a different side of you!"
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
But in fact, another emotion gradually rose in Mo Zheng's heart.
An indescribable emotion.
He didn't know what was wrong with him.
For a moment, the brewed red wine no longer smelled fragrant, the artificial snow scene no longer looked good, and everything felt meaningless.
"You guys take your time chatting! I won't be a light bulb!" Mo Zheng stood up, waved his hand and left without giving the two a chance to react.
But his back looked a little lonely against the backdrop of the snow on this winter night.
"Brother..." Lin Mingmo called out.
Mo Zheng waved his hand again, quickened his pace, and strode out of the snow as if escaping.
Looking at Mo Zheng's back, Lin Mingmo felt a little confused.
"Sheng Yuan, what did you talk about with him?" Lin Mingmo asked with a frown, "Why does he seem unhappy..."
Lin Mingmo has always been sensitive to emotions.
"I didn't say anything..." Sheng Yuan looked into Lin Mingmo's eyes with an innocent tone, "Maybe he's... shy?"
As he spoke, Sheng Yuan held up Lin Mingmo's face, leaned over and kissed her.
Fireworks lit up her pupils.
The suspicion in Lin Mingmo's eyes did not diminish at all. After a moment, she lowered her head and murmured, "It's probably because of Teacher Qin..."
Qin Yue.
It's been too long since I mentioned this name.
She seemed to have disappeared for a long time.
Since Qin Yue left, Lin Mingmo has spent a lot of effort looking for her and even hired several private detectives.
However, all she did was prove that if a person really wanted to hide, others really couldn't find him.
Nowadays, Mo Zheng seems to be getting along very well with Li Yunhua. The two families plan to get engaged after the new year and officially get married in May.
Every time this issue was brought up, Mo Zheng would casually say, "All right, I'll do as you say."
It seems...it doesn't matter who I marry.
"Don't think too much." Sheng Yuan reached out and ruffled Lin Mingmo's hair. "I believe Mo Zheng has his own rhythm."
The Mo family’s fireworks had stopped, and the sky had returned to its pitch-black color.
The group of children were also called back by their parents.
The excitement faded.
Only the snow machine was still tirelessly spraying snowflakes.
The blood that was boiling during the fun just now cooled down, and when the wind blew, I still shivered with cold.
"Of course not!" Lin Mingmo was filled with worry. "He just doesn't have his own rhythm. He's like a small boat floating on the sea, going wherever the wind blows and the waves surge..."
Sheng Yuan turned his head to look at Lin Mingmo and wrapped her hand in his own.
The transfer of warmth made Lin Mingmo feel much more comfortable.
"Mo Zheng is... quite a mixed-up guy." Sheng Yuan said with a smile, "He still doesn't know what he really wants."
"But...what if he makes the wrong decision before he knows my true feelings?"
"There's a lot of room for error in his life, so you don't have to worry."
"But..." Lin Mingmo curled her lips and couldn't say the second half of the sentence.
Not everyone's life has such a large margin for error like Mo Zheng and Sheng Yuan, at least not Teacher Qin...
When I think of Qin Yue, I can't help but think of what Mo Bozhao did.
Lin Mingmo didn't understand. How could Mo Bozhao, who loved her so much as a daughter, be so cruel to someone else's daughter?
A cloud of gloom fell over her good mood. She turned her head and looked into Sheng Yuan's eyes.
The two eyes met, staring at each other for a long time, and were silent for a long time.
For some reason, Lin Mingmo felt that Sheng Yuan's eyes hid many secrets.
Just like before, she could never see through him.
However, she is no longer the person who worries about gains and losses.
If she can't see through it, then she can't see through it. Where Sheng Yuan wants her to see, it will naturally open up.
The chestnuts on the grill exploded with a "bang". "Ah--" Lin Mingmo was frightened and subconsciously shrank into Sheng Yuan's arms.
Sheng Yuan also hugged her tightly and patted her back to comfort her.
"Don't be afraid, it's just the chestnuts that exploded."
He leaned over and picked up the tongs to move the roasted chestnuts off the grill, and at the same time moved the boiling red wine away.
"Would you like to try it?" Sheng Yuan asked.
Lin Mingmo patted her chest and nodded, "I want to eat it. It scared me!"
Sheng Yuan lowered his eyes, rolled a few roasted chestnuts in the snow to cool them down, then used his thumb and index finger to apply a little force along the crack, and the chestnuts were easily pulled out.
After peeling off the skin, he fed it directly into Lin Mingmo's mouth.
Chewing sweet chestnuts and lying on Sheng Yuan's thighs, Lin Mingmo sighed.
"Don't worry, just enjoy yourself." Sheng Yuan looked deeply.
